IAN RUHTER’S AMERICAN DREAM

We’ve written on this blog about Ian Ruhter before. Ian is a photographer who has effectively turned an old bread truck it into a camera, the largest camera in the world.He uses the Wetplate Collodion process from the 1800’s to create the most awe-inspiring large format photographs. Ian recently created a video documenting his newest body of work called, The American Dream. Ian explains, “The American Dream video is based on the fear of success, this thought is extremely powerful, fear has the ability to cripple us from pursuing our dreams. The moment I embraced my dreams it was as if the universe had drawn people to help us and share their stories. Our goal is to tell the stories of the people who live in America.” See his work here.
